Better Together Youth Mentorship​​The Better Together Youth Mentorship Program provides one-on-one mentorship services to corrections involved youth. Rebound, Inc. is dedicated to recruiting a diverse array of mentors, so that youth can be matched based both on culture and shared interests. We builds on initial matches with high quality initial, and ongoing, training and support for mentors to ensure they are equipped to create and maintain authentic relationships with youth which are informed by appropriate boundaries, realistic behavioral expectations, and needed skills. The program will launch in Spring 2018 and is anticipated to serve up to 25 youth per year.
